totally ALMOST died from a street snow shoveler today.

IT WAS FRIGID TODAY.

silly me, thinking I could wear a vest and be fine.

I made a super delicious marinara sauce tonight which I am verrrry proud of. No picture, use your imaginations!

I used a carrot peeler to make ribbons like fettucine pasta, (yummy but without the stomach pain or bloating), and added some spring mix salad leaves into it. The sauce was one ripe tomato, half a red pepper, ton of oregano, thyme, some celtic sea salt, kalamata olives, 1 T shelled hemp seeds, extra virgin olive oil and one small garlic clove (I HATE GARLIC AND ONIONS, but sometimes you need to suffer for flavour's sake).

About the cold weather, it is possible to eat raw during freezing temperatures! I had fruit today and some hummus with carrots and bananas. Also, LISTEN UP COOKED FOODERS. I had a certain brand of cereal today, gluten free, only 6 grams of sugar. It was the first non-raw "meal" I had in about 2 weeks. Whatever sugar was in the cereal started an instant migraine, and less than 30 minutes later an insane stomach pain.

I had two hoods on and was walking briskly, while the shoveller was pummeling forward in my direction, I screamed outloud and jumped just in time to see the driver LAUGHING! It is funny now that I think about it, but a bit scary at the moment haha.

Favourite DETOX Tools.

About Me

Originally, this was for a 30 day experience, but going raw is a lifestyle choice, and for me it's about incorporating as much as I can during my day. During the summer of '09 my vegan diet of two years became a junk food diet, although still vegan, it was horrifically unhealthy. I'm using this to track my progress and spread my excitement, you CAN be healthy as a student, without extra time and even with a limiting budget! It's all about finding the balance :)
